Prettier From Above (English Edition) eBook

In these seven stories the mourning for the death of a lover is shown, an unfinished story. Prettier from above, the debut feature of Germán Donoso Coppa

These stories talk about death but also tell a world where HIV/AIDS is an unspoken epidemic that people want to think is over, even though it keeps on killing.

This is a love story, it is also a story of illness and death, but above all this is a love story.

Donoso Coppa’s writing shows a world with many overlapping veils, social class, gender, queerness and love to put together a cocktail that is sometimes hilarious, touching and several times hopeless. In the record of José Donoso and a kind of Lemebel without frills, Donoso Coppa’s pen manages to account for new and old problems of the LGBTQ+ scene.
